Pros

A fun place to work where almost everyone cares about the job they are doing. Very gamer culture oriented and expectations are clearly laid out. When people struggle they are given help to perform better.

Cons

Compensation is very slow coming, and senior management has become out of touch with daily work. Workload and stress are in no way reflected in payscale or recognition at company events.

Player focus, some of the coolest games on the planet, Riot does a great job of creating an environment where people can succeed and thrive

Crunch is on the rise, fiscal discipline on exploration is still too loose, lots of layers of management
